"Oak"
The guardians

shook their heads
great thoughts

from the ground, roots up,

was witnessed
in their waving gestures
perplexed
and touching
green crowns,
there they...

A successful career achieved without fear

Kids' Table
Laying my head back, eyes closing,
reminiscing, the years falling away into decades ago
to the 1950s at my grandparents' grand home
for Christmas.
It was a gracious dining room.
Noontime sun streaming in.
Chair rail with deep red wallpaper, white...

People aging,...
